Cachita

Cachita is a golang file, memory, SQL, Redis cache library

• Simple caching with auto type assertion included.
• In memory file cache index to avoid unneeded I/O.
• Msgpack based binary serialization using msgpack library for file caching.
• radix Redis client.
• Tag cache and invalidate cache keys based on tags, check in the examples.

API docs: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/gadelkareem/cachita.

Examples: examples.

Installation

Install:

go get -u github.com/gadelkareem/cachita

Quickstart

func ExampleCache() {
	cache := cachita.Memory()
	err := cache.Put("cache_key", "some data", 1*time.Minute)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	if cache.Exists("cache_key") {
		// do something
	}

	var holder string
	err = cache.Get("cache_key", &holder)
	if err != nil && err != cachita.ErrNotFound {
		panic(err)
	}

	fmt.Printf("%s", holder) // prints "some data"

	err = cache.Invalidate("cache_key")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	// Output: some data

}
